Bizarre Detective Agency

   Chapter 819 One hundred and ten. Conversation before the bonfire

   The bonfire is "crackling".

  The heat source dissipates the chill of the leaky cabin.

   Night shrouded the silent village, and a surging, eerie fog engulfed the brainless corpses outside.

  The shadow of the poison of knowledge has left them, and as a price...

   Katerina, Evil Fall, and Physius crowded on one side of the bonfire, while Lu Li sat alone on the other side.

The    squirming cavity sounded in the shadow blocked by Lu Li's shadow, and Katerina and the others tried not to look in that direction.

   The suffering crowd is behind Lu Li.

   Its existence makes them afraid to look at it, but it also has advantages.

   Don't worry about the weird approach in the fog.

  The shadows are hard to block the chubby people who are as fat as buckets. The blinking eyeballs appear in the gap between the light and the dark, making Lu Li like a deity with a strange background on the colored windows of the church, which is awe-inspiring.

   "Will it really not eat us..."

  Purse asked for the seventh time, suppressed whispers only lingering around the campfire.

   Even the eldest sister, who lives in the hood, felt uncomfortable. Choose to sit with Lu Li's legs bent.

"Um."

   "Why not..."

   "Ritual."

  The evil spirits and villagers that approached dozens of minutes ago made the panicked Purse not remember the "knowledge" that Lu Li told.

   "The misery will only fight back against those who harm it."

   "We hurt it too..."

   The whispers of Prius, who feared to be heard by the afflicted, were engulfed in flames.

  If Katarina wasn't around, if the Doomsday Apocalypse hadn't increased Lu Li, he wouldn't even have noticed what Pusius just said.

   "The damage has a threshold, and the damage of throwing stones is not enough for the suffering to fight back."

   They can't understand the meaning of "threshold", but it doesn't prevent them from understanding the meaning of these words.

   "Why does it still follow us?"

   Knowing that the afflicted will not harm them, Pusius raised his voice a little.

   "It's still a ritual."

   The bonfire that had become exuberant scorched hot, and Lu Li was far away from the flames and closer to the people who were suffering behind him.

   "We hurt the Difficult One, caught in its ritual, and it couldn't fight back because the threshold was not reached."

   "I see, it's the same as the poison of knowledge, right? The poison of knowledge wants to eat the villagers, but the villagers will not be eaten without knowledge."

  Puseus said excitedly, and was affirmed by Lu Li, he quickly wagged his tail because of the sense of approval.

"I thought it would be safer to go back to your hometown. Now, the Lord's Continent is much more dangerous than the Badlands." Katarina doesn't like this kind of life. At least most of the towns in the Badlands are safe and friendly enough not to leave. There is no danger in the safe zone.

   In the past few days, she has encountered more life-and-death crises than she has encountered in the more than ten years of survival in the wilderness.

   "Go back to the barrens and cry to mother."

  Evil Falls controls the five senses, preventing them from spreading due to evil spirits, and taunts Katerina with extreme malice.

   "He needs your disgust." Purse said quickly, afraid of Caterina's anger.

   "Don't pretend to be smart, little beast."

  Puseus whimpered and tucked his tail.

   Even though he knew why Evil Falls said that, he still felt very hurt.

  Katarina of course knew why Evil Falls said that. And because of her previous behavior, Katarina's impression of the evil has changed, and it is difficult to bring up her bad feelings.

   "Don't bother, it's hard for us to hate you now."

   Messy hair hangs on his forehead, swaying by the heat. Katarina raised her arms to tuck her hair, and bumped the back of Evil Fallen's head with her elbow.

   It's one thing not to hate it, it's another to punish bad breath.

   "So you're actually a good guy."

   "Good guy...?"

  Evil Falls sneered at this, and stopped using vicious language to absorb negative emotions. After a moment of silence, his mouth grinned.

"I'm dying."

  Puseus raised his head in a daze, and Katerina, who had a ponytail, put down her arms: "What did the villagers do to you?"

   "It has nothing to do with them. My pollution is serious."

  Lu Li stretched out his palm and raised his index finger.

   Evil Falls, who knew his intentions, stretched out his palms covered with burning scars and touched Lu Li's fingertips above the bonfire.

  Evil Fallen's face is twisted in a weird way, and it is difficult to distinguish emotions, but the trembling arms indicate that he is suffering.

   silently watching them withdraw their arms, Katerina asked: "So you chose to follow us?"

   "The trip with the last exorcist is a perfect ending, right?"

   The evil depravity that tore off the bad exterior reveals another side. Perhaps he was a learned man before he was exposed to strange powers.

   "Maybe you will become an alien, and you can stay awake." Purse comforted the evil fall, hoping that he would not give up.

  Lu Li's team is growing, and there is even an evil spirit to join - they instinctively create epics.

   "Not everyone is as lucky as you, little guy." The villain who revealed the truth was no longer sarcastic and became much easier to get along with.

  The serious contamination of eccentric people is worse than that of ordinary people.

   They have methods to suppress and control pollution, but everything has a limit, or what Lu Li called a "threshold".

   "Threshold" will only be raised, not erased.

   And when they reach the limit with deep pollution, they will not become aliens, but directly become strange and even polluted sources of pollution.

   "I can hold on for a while. Before that, you'd better find the person you're looking for." Evil Fallen said to Lu Li.

"how long?"

   Katerina asked.

   "For a week." But irony has become a mask that is difficult to tear off.

  Using abilities will exacerbate the contamination of the Fallen, even if you get too close to the weird.

   "Can you keep it away?" Evil Fallen said by the way.

   The last time he hurt the suffering crowd was Lu Li, so he followed Lu Li.

  Lu Li nodded, held up the eldest sister's head, and retreated to the corner of the house with the miserable crowd.

  The surroundings quickly became gloomy and cold, and the distant fire was like a sunset immersing in the horizon.

   "Go to Wiener Antifreeze Port to retrieve the news." Lu Li said to the merchant.

  Two days have passed, Wiener Ice Free Port should have collected Anna's clues,

   "Wait, what if Barry appeared?" Katarina stopped.

   "The misery is there, maybe Barry won't be there."

  Lu Li wrote "Barry is an evil spirit" on the wall with charcoal.

  The other side of the wall is written by Evil Falls.

   Katarina was illiterate, and Pusius couldn't hold charcoal.

   Barry distorts memory and cognition, but not the essence of things.

   Just in case, Katarina asked the merchant to go faster, but it didn't take long to retrieve the clues.

  The businessman did not respond, and his figure faded to introduce the gradient of the inner world.

  The hut was quiet, except for the rustling of charcoal on the walls.

   "The ancient marks you drew are so ugly."

   Katarina looked disgusted, and didn't think that this kind of crude painting could protect them.

   "The ancient mark doesn't look standard..."

   Barry, who was holding the charcoal, turned around, scratching the back of his head and smirking.

   Numerous twisted ancient imprints are painted on the walls.
